Saw a 2013 Z on the road today....

It was a white one... and all I have to say is the pictures we have all been seeing of the new front end design do the car NO justice

Default Saw a 2013 Z on the road today....

It was a white one... and all I have to say is the pictures we have all been seeing of the new front end design do the car NO justice at all. This car looked absolutely gorgeous coming down the road. The DRL's are very noticeable and the new body lines on the front bumper that contour to the DRL's looks great.

Just had to share. I'm seriously thinking about either trading in my 2010 or buying a 2013 front bumper.

Anxious to see some owners post pics on here....!

I saw one in Solid Red at the dealer today. Looked very good.

Salesman ran out wagging his tail, so I asked him if they were getting the new red color. He said the this was the new color because it was the 2013 car. When I told him there is another red in 2013, he started to argue with me that there was not. I told him that before he comes to talk to a potential customer, he should know his vehicles. His excuse was "We did not get the new brochure yet." I told him to look on the internet, it's only been there for 3 month. He left in a bit of a huff.

I might have been a bit harsh.

Anyway, the Solid Red looked good.

I may have to run down to the dealership to see one in person then, because I'm not quite sure it'll grow on me at all.

Then again, I'm also disappointed I can't get the Monterrey Blue and the '12 Rays if I go with the '13 model.

I didn't think the new ones came in SR anymore. Thought it was magma red now.

It is Midnight Blue now.

I just checked and there are midnight blue 370z in my area at Puente Hills, Nissan, Stadium nissan (orange), performance nissan (duarte) and tustin Nissan. I am thinking of going by and checking out the new midnight blue color in person.
